Ever wondered how a deep-rooted family tradition from Yemen could inspire a modern winemaking journey in Ma'ale Efrayim? Meet Yaacov Ben-Ami, a passionate winemaker who crafts approximately 3,000 bottles of kosher wine annually in his home winery. Join us as we uncover Yaacov's story, woven through tales of his grandfather Saba Moshe’s influence and his grapes sourced from vineyards across Shiloh, Itamar, and Galil regions of Israel. Discover the unique narratives behind his wines, each reflecting the historical and natural tapestry of their region.
Explore the nuances of winemaking with Yaacov as he shares insights on the fermentation process, the surprising discovery of Sangiovese grapes from Givat Ada. Through this sensory journey, we contemplate the delicate balance between time-honored techniques and modern practices, revealing the transformative power of patience and creativity in the art of winemaking.
